Vampire Love

Author’s Note: This is a piece about the cause and effect events in the book, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. I will also be telling what the climax is and evaluating it.

When Bella Swan met Edward Cullen, she never would have guessed her life would change so drastically. But of course, it was fate. See, Edward Cullen is a three- hundred year old vampire that repeats living a life of a seventeen year old high-school student. However, Bella Swan, just a normal teenage girl, doesn’t know that yet. Although, there’s one problem; they’re in love. And Edward, has changed Bella’s life forever.

To start off with, after Edward and Bella met, Bella started to lack on her social life. She was so in love with Edward, he’s the only person she ever wanted to be with. She stopped going to her friends’ parties and stopped hanging out with them altogether. This was a major change in her life. Edward was also worried, because he knew he was wrecking Bellas’ relationships with her friends, but Bella didn’t care. She was in a love trance and would never get out of it. This affected her life so much that she couldn’t control herself when she was around Edward. However, nothing stopped her from loving him.

Even though Bella’s social life getting worse is a big reason why I think her life changed significantly when she met Edward, there are other reasons. For example, Bella started to want to become a vampire. Edward is a vampire and this is why  Bella started to want to be one. This would have never happened if she never met Edward. She would have just lived a normal life and grew old and died. But now this changes everything. It’s her only desire and she won’t give up. See, vampires never die. They live forever, so Bella won’t die without Edward. If Bella becomes a vampire, she will never die. She will outlive all her friends and family, and that would affect her life dramatically. She would also have to start eating animals or humans. It’s the only thing vampires can eat. That would also be a big change for Bella and her whole life would change. She couldn’t be around humans and would have to learn to control her thirst for humans. It would be very difficult for her.

          While Bella wanting to be a vampire is a big reason why Bella’s life changed when she met Edward, my last reason is most important. My last reason is that after Bella met Edward, she started to get a feeling that someone was following her. It turns out three vampires were on the loose and hunting her. This was the climax of the story. James, the strongest vampire, hunts Bella down and attacks her. Thankfully, Edward comes just in time. This affects Bella by many reasons. If she didn’t even meet Edward, this wouldn’t have happened. Also, she always had to be on watch now. She always had to look for thirsty vampires. Another way this affects her is that now she will always be afraid. She will always be afraid of everyone because she doesn’t know who is a vampire and who isn’t. This is terrible for her. It would change her life forever.

Lastly, if Bella Swan never met Edward Cullen, things would be very different. For example, Bella wouldn’t have to worry about vampires. She wouldn’t have even known they existed! She wouldn’t have to agonize about them. Also, if Bella didn’t meet Edward she would of never got attacked by James. She could have been healthy and happy but of course fate brought her to Edward. How could she refuse?  Another thing would be different if Bella and Edward didn’t meet. Bella would be a normal teenage girl. She wouldn’t have a vampire boyfriend that always protected her. She wouldn’t have other evil vampires stalking her. She would be completely happy! However, Edward always treats Bella wonderfully, so that’s a plus!

 

         

          As you can see, Bella’s life changed a lot thanks to her meeting Edward. All these reasons explain why meeting Edward affected her life so much. I bet she wishes she had nothing to do with Edward now! Vampires can be quite complicated as she learns.  Why would you ever want to be a vampire?
